YOU COULD BE SPIDER-MAN!

We’re back with an all-new episode and we’re talking all about Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse!

This movie was AMAZING and we had a great time talking about it!

Also covered in this episode: some other topics!

But mostly, it’s just about Into the Spider-Verse.

Let us know what you think and, by all means, let a friend know if you enjoy it!

Welcome to 2019!

My good buddy Matt Drane and I are back talking about all kinds of things!

As you can see from the cover, there’s an in-depth look at the latest Captain Marvel trailer, a lot of comic movie talk, the imagined frustrations of writing big time comics, and how reading comics can be like riding the world’s worst roller-coaster!

It’s our 26th episode!

This week we talk about the Venom movie, the Spider-Man game, and ask ourselves what we would do with “spider-powers”!

All of this plus a brief history of the Friday the 13th movie series, praise for Halloween (2018), and much more!

We hope you enjoy it!

Let us know if we got things wrong, what you would do with spider-powers, and anything else that springs to mind while listening to this episode!

It’s our 25th episode!

WARNING: I start this episode by saying it’s going to be another episode of Comics Rule Everything Around Me, but this turns out to not be the case, and it is instead a new episode of plain ol’ Keep It Close To Me where my buddy Matt and I talk about video games!

We talk about a lot of video games, actually. A lot are comic/superhero related, but there’s a surprise or two in there as well.

We also try to answer some deeply personal questions like “Does being bad at video games make you feel bad about yourself?”

We hope you enjoy it!

Let us know if we got things wrong, what video games you love, and anything else that springs to mind while listening to this episode!

SHOW NOTES!

Here’s an excruciating playthrough of the first level of Superman 64 and a fun video about the history of how one of the worst games of all time happened.

If you’ve never seen it, here’s the Super Mario Bros. 3 commercial I mention this episode. It really pulls off the double magic trick of making SMB3 seem both exciting and like a very big deal without showing a second of gameplay.

Superman for the Nintendo! What could go wrong?

A lot!

It’s our 24th episode!

And it’s even kind of a sequel to our 3rd episode: The War Civil!

This week, Matt and I talk about Avengers: Infinity War!

We had a great time talking about it for this Avenger-sized extra-long episode, but there are major spoilers, so please don’t listen until you’ve seen the movie!

It’s our 21st episode!

Get ready for a slam-bang, big-time, comic-book, summer-blockbuster doubleheader as Matt and I are back to talk about Wonder Woman and Spider-Man: Homecoming!

You may have heard that we all got fired from Comics Alliance recently, so now would be a great time to check out the ol’ Patreon!

Matt is back to talk about Venom #150, Tom King’s run on Batman, Memphis’ recent bad weather, what’s happening in Secret Empire (Spoilers!), X-O Manowar and how much I enjoy Valiant Comics, and some artists get put on blast! Very, very gentle blast.
